function msh = load_gmsh2(filename, which)

%% Reads a mesh in msh format, version 1 or 2

% Usage:
% To define all variables m.LINES, M.TRIANGLES, etc
% (Warning: This creates a very large structure. Do you really need it?)
%            m = load_gmsh2('a.msh')
%
% To define only certain variables (for example TETS and HEXS)
%            m = load_gmsh2('a.msh', [ 5 6])
%
% To define no variables (i.e. if you prefer to use m.ELE_INFOS(i,2))
%            m = load_gmsh2('a.msh', -1)
%            m = load_gmsh2('a.msh', [])

% Structure msh always has the following elements:
%
% msh.MIN, msh.MAX - Bounding box
% msh.nbNod - Number of nodes
% msh.nbElm - Total number of elements
% msh.nbType(i) - Number of elements of type i (i in 1:19)
% msh.POS(i,j) - j'th coordinate of node i (j in 1:3, i in 1:msh.nbNod)
% msh.ELE_INFOS(i,1) - id of element i (i in 1:msh.nbElm)
% msh.ELE_INFOS(i,2) - type of element i
% msh.ELE_INFOS(i,3) - number of tags for element i
% msh.ELE_INFOS(i,4) - Dimension (0D, 1D, 2D or 3D) of element i
% msh.ELE_TAGS(i,j) - Tags of element i (j in 1:msh.ELE_INFOS(i,3))
% msh.ELE_NODES(i,j) - Nodes of element i (j in 1:k, with
%                       k = msh.NODES_PER_TYPE_OF_ELEMENT(msh.ELE_INFOS(i,2)))
%
% These elements are created if requested:
%
% msh.nbLines - number of 2 node lines
% msh.LINES(i,1:2) - nodes of line i
% msh.LINES(i,3) - tag (WHICH ?????) of line i
%
% msh.nbTriangles - number of 2 node triangles
% msh.TRIANGLES(i,1:3) - nodes of triangle i
% msh.TRIANGLES(i,4) - tag (WHICH ?????) of triangle i
%
% Etc

% These definitions need to be updated when new elemens types are added to gmsh
%
% msh.Types{i}{1} Number of an element of type i
% msh.Types{i}{2} Dimension (0D, 1D, 2D or 3D) of element of type i
% msh.Types{i}{3} Name to add to the structure with elements of type i
% msh.Types{i}{4} Name to add to the structure with the number of elements of type i
